    A lovely place to which we keep returning.! My out of town guests and I were running late for our reserved time on Valentine’s Day before the restaurant switched over to its late afternoon Valentine’s Day menu. We had run into heavy construction traffic returning from sightseeing. I called and explained the situation and then called again as we got closer. Richard was calm and gracious and said he’d make sure we were seated and indeed we were and delightfully attended to on the relaxing enclosed patio by our cheerful server. Delicious chicken pot pie ! I will keep bringing my out-of-town guests here!

    We had lunch here to celebrate Valentines Day. We had the Dungeness Crab Salad, fries and 1/2 dozen oysters. We ordered the west coast oysters and they were delicious. The salad was generous, fresh with a light dressing. Very good. The fries were hand cut and fresh out of the hopper when brought to our table. One order was plenty for two of us. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. This was our first visit and we will return. Highly recommend Zinc Bistro.

    My wife and I love this place, and the food is always solid when we go there. The price is not cheap by any means for the food, but I believe the value is there. Our server last night was exceptional, Curtis went above and beyond with every request and adjustment we needed. The one critique I would suggest, when using open table to book the restaurant requires a $15 per person no show fee, they should in turn give you a $15 credit for not having your table ready when you arrive. We booked for 8 pm last night and had to wait 20 mins to be seated, when first approaching the reservation desk we were ask had we checked in??? there is no QR code or sign for check in??? The hostess (Both) very rude and seemed over whelmed with doing there job! Usually a simple we will get you seated as soon as we can, and thank you for your patience goes a long way!! Instead we got rude and no communication

    Our food was delicious and Owen our server did not miss a thing. One of the best experiences I have had at North Italia – Kierland Commons! I enjoyed the meatballs as an appetizer and the arugula & avocado salad with heirloom beets added. My guest enjoyed 2 bowls of the soup of the day and a caesar salad. As great as the food was, Owen's professionalism and attention to detail was the icing on the cake!
